I accidentally killed a follower from the College of Winterhold, and then lost them. . I'm not sure I even killed them really, for it didn't start the quest to redeem my acts with the College. Later I used a few magic console commands to find and teleport his dead corpse back to me. After that, I revived him with.. resurrect 1 ..Which appeared to do the job, but it no longer gave option to have him follow me again, in hopes of getting the last person I needed to join the Blades. So I left it at that for a time, later on found that the others sometimes treated me as if I really did kill the poor cat, despite him walking around the place as he pleases, without any brain damage or anything! Console commands really do work miracles, they even helped me fix a few bugged quest lines. Yet I must have messed up this time, must have left something out. . Did something I shouldn't have...

Now the part that I cannot seem to escape from is that all of my other followers --from the Blades-- act as if I already have a follower, despite obviously not being followed. . Which I need, to get this guy who has taken it upon himself to live inside my very own home --in Markarth-- with out so an inkling of approval from myself. All just because I helped the new Jarl out... Bloody hell. I contemplated killing the poor bloke, to just get him out of the way, but I couldn't find it within myself to do so. Thus I came up with a faulty plan to have him take the last remaining spot among the Blades instead the cat, my fellow student J'zargo I think it was. But that wouldn't work, for two reasons.. First of which you already know is that I'm being followed already, but not really. The second is that the Blades demand of me to kill my good old friend Paarthurnax, who I completely trust for the time being. . He even said I can trust him. So I do. ..But now I wonder if I can get this gentleman out of my house, and feed him to the dragons! Or at least put him up in the list on the menu.

My question is.. is there anyway to get the cat to stop not really following me? Such as maybe erasing him from the fabric of space and time itself and cloning a newer better version of kitteh? Maybe killing is the only option, which may prove difficult. I may have to kill both of them. . And be rightfully treated as a murderer...

I should appreciate any help.

Why didn't you just make him your Dead Thrall? A Dead Thrall is a permanent resurrection spell, and with a certain perk, your companion gets 100 extra health.

I never knew about the Dead Thrall spell, very interesting, thanks for telling me about it. I was hoping for something just like that when I first began the game, as sort of my hidden quest among all the others.. to bring someone back to life perpetually. Or at the very least their corpse. But I'd rather not really want to kill anybody unless they're trying to kill me. I may have used the spell when the cat first died, but I lost his body. . Which I could have teleported back, but that's all too late now I fear.

As for the matter of Paarthurnax, when is death ever an acceptable, sufficient and justified solution to what has already been done? Death only serves as a means to prevent more from happening, not to prevent what has already happened... Which seems to be the sole reason that the Blades want him dead. Other than the theory that he might betray the people and "return to his old master" who I already killed. A bunch of rubbish... Bloody hell.

Still appreciate any further help..

Bump..

Very last bump, sorry. .
